  • I love the music, but I don't think the sheer power of the lyrics in the Swedish original can be properly translated into another language.

  • Haha, awesome cover of an awesome cover.

  • Cool version of such an old song. I wonder what Carl Michael Bellman would say If he'd hear it.

  • @Erotomania89

    Yeah, explain him the electric guitar :-)

  • Epic! How could I have let this band pass me by? Now off to the record store...

    and also, R.I.P Carl Michael Bellman 1745-1795 ;)

  • Great version, this song is painfully beautiful

  • The translation is excellent, but I have to say I don't particularly like the way he sings it.

  • Comment removed

  • @kwstikas82

    I thought this was an american band?

  • oops, this was supposed to be a comment to another vid.

  • @kwstikas82

    Im gonna take a guess and assume is was the band Forsaken? haha

  • Breath-takingly amazing.

  • Så konstigt att höra Bellmans låt på engelska... Jag föredrar den originella, på svenska.

  • @s0182446 Vilken tänker du på då? Det finns ingen inspelning med Bellman.

    Tänker du kanske på Imperiets version som är baserad på Cornelis skränande?

    Så vitt jag vet finns det ingen känd Svensk version som har med andra versen :(

  • @boretrk Jag tänkte på Carl-Michael Bellmans "Märk hur vår skugga" (i "Fredmans Epistlar", n°81), som blev visserligen tolkat av många svenska artister, b.a. Cornelis och Imperiet - utan också Sofia Karlsson och Fred Åkerström. :)

  • @boretrk PS: Visst finns det ingen inspelning av Bellman själv, eftersom han levde i 1700-talet. :)

  • They play it way too fast

  • Carl Michael Bellman will turn in his grave!

  • good work on the keyboards, I like the interpretation they add. the vocals isn´t easy for anybody since it requires more emotional presence as well as tone.

  • I really love Candlemass, i think this version sounds better with While Heaven Wept, i repeat, i´m a big Candlemass fan

  • W.H.W , BEST BAND IN USA!!

  • YES!!! You´re RIGHT!!!! HAIL!! METAL BROTHER!!!!! HAIL!!! WHILE HEAVEN WEPT!!!!!!!

  • Good version, even though it sounds better with a singel acoustic guitar than an ensemble i think, but it's fun to experiment with music. sounded good!

  • Music and voice so powerful, it's awesome!

  • I think you are wrong!!Of course the original version is the best but this cover is excellent!!!!Hail Tom Phillips our god!

  • Majestic, great, heavenly, genius, from outer space!!!

  • Great.

  • awesome

  • a translated version of 18th century swedish song

  • excellent

  • excellent interpretation of candlemass,bravo sir,simply great.thank you

  • Actually this isn't originally a Candlemass song, it's a song by the Swedish 18th century composer Carl Michael Bellman.
